Generate focused questions and informed predictions about the natural world.
Design and conduct simple to multi-step investigations in order to test predictions. Keep constant all but the condition being tested.
Accurately collect data using observations, simple tools and equipment. Display and organize data in tables, charts, diagrams, and bar graphs or plots over time Compare and question results with and from others.
Use mathematics, reading, writing, and technology when conducting scientific inquiries.
Construct a reasonable explanation by analyzing evidence from the data.
Revise the explanation after comparing results with other sources or after further investigation.
Communicate procedures, data, and explanations to a variety of audiences. Justify the results by using evidence to form an argument.
Use appropriate safety procedures when conducting investigations
Frame and refine questions that can be investigated scientifically, and generate testable hypotheses.
Design and conduct investigations with controlled variables to test hypotheses.
Accurately collect data through the selection and use of tools and techniques appropriate to the investigation.
Construct tables, diagrams and graphs, showing relationships between two variables, to display and facilitate analysis of data.
Compare and question results with and from other students
Construct logical scientific explanations and present arguments that defend proposed explanations through the use of closely examined evidence.
Evaluating the explanations proposed by others involves examining and comparing evidence, identifying faulty reasoning, pointing out
